RETRACTED: Improvement and Experimental Explore on Coordinated Control of Kinematic Mechanism of FDM 3D Printer (Retracted Article)

As the main component of the 3D printing industry, the fused deposition process covers all aspects of the industry with its advantages of low R&D investment, high practicability, and open source programs. However, due to process problems, problems have arisen in terms of printing efficiency and molding quality. To this end, we designed a large-scale multinozzle FDM printing device using the high-current fused deposition (FDM) printing principle. The defects of small size, slow printing speed, and low precision are deeply studied, and the machine structure is optimized according to the structural strength analysis. In this paper, the theoretical design and static analysis of the overall mechanical part of the large-scale FDM device are carried out, and then, the selection of the movement organization structure and movement method is theoretically analyzed. A modular flow chart is designed for the control system to coordinate and control the parallel and precise operation of multiple nozzles, and the relationship function between the main controller, power driver, and heating module is designed. By modifying the firmware parameter command, we can find out the optimal method running on the platform and discuss the function usage of the slicing software in detail. According to the current problems of FDM printing equipment, various factors affecting printing speed were analyzed from the perspective of printing accuracy, and the process parameters of 3D printer were studied through orthogonal experiments. Speed, nozzle temperature, idling speed, and fill rate were studied, and the relationship between factors affecting printing speed and printing accuracy was obtained. Use a simple model print to measure the overall performance of your product. The stability of the system is verified by short-term and long-term printing tests. The analysis results show that the forming performance and stability of the large-scale FDM are improved significantly.
